DayZ is a video game. Flying a Helicopter in DayZ is quite a difficult to do and can be rather dangerous. In order to do it safely, you'll need to know how to use the controls properly.

Steps

1

Find a helicopter.

2

Jump into the helicopter.

3

Press Q. Let the rotors spin for awhile. When the rotors are at full speed, hold down Q.

4

Get to a height that is comfortable for you.

5

Turn on auto-hover. Just look around.

6

Learn the main controls. They are:

W= Forward

A= Bank left

S= Bank right

D= Backwards

Z= Land

7

Turn off the auto-hover. It's now time to control the helicopter manually.

Hold W and Q. Remember to always hold Q.

8

Get used to the controls. When comfortable, turn on auto-hover again.

9

Hold down Z and slowly land. Well done––you just did the most dangerous thing in DayZ!
